Invasion Game

Invasion games or territorial games

are activities that show the players
ability to move into a space to goal,
to occupy opponent’s space, and to
defend their space. These games
are played by teams within a set of
time. Each team invades the
opponent’s territory, scores points
and prevents opposing team to
score.
 Types of Invasion Game

the object and running, jumping,

include sports where an object
